| Publisher Description: Complete book and lyrics, illustrated. The Ziegfeld Follies of 1919 opened at one of the most transitional times in American history. World War I had just ended, Prohibition was soon to take effect, and America was on the verge of the Jazz Age. The review ran for 171 performances, the longest of any Follies up to that time and is consider the best of Ziegfeld's Follies. It is primarily remembered today as the Follies that introduced Irving Berlin's "A Pretty Girl is Like a Melody" and that showcased Ziegfeld's unrequited love interest at the time, Marilyn Miller. |
